absolutely not--my point is media impact has 100% driven this election. Without it, Obama's "cult of personality" wouldn't exist.

He wouldn't be spending millions on TV ads. While I hope that it doesn't, I don't see how this election won't set the US back 40 years. It won't just be class warfare, and the "global government" that the apostle Daniel wrote about will be in full swing, as everything will go through the UN, and our balls will be cut off. I just want a safe place to live; I can take care of myself and family beyond that. I don't see the US being safe, and eventually, it will be more economical elsewhere, as well.

was i foolish to hope the trolls wouldn't make it over to ST? -- nm - Die Incognito Oct 20, 18:44 1

I like the Biblical reference followed by the balls cut off thing. It's hard to mix a message that much. -- nm - David Oct 20, 18:41 2

and how does this go towards what motivated Powell's decision? -- nm - Reagen Oct 20, 18:34 16
- the stage is what is in question...if he had Olbermann in his face, asking whom he was going to endorse, it's a lot different than Powell coming out - GJOSHGREEN Oct 20, 18:37 6
  - Did you just suggest that Obama supporters don't know who Condoleezza Rice is? - the wrong element, bad guy Oct 20, 18:48 2
    - dont you know? all liberals are festering idiots who have no clue how great things are under W. -- nm - Die Incognito Oct 20, 18:50 1
      - Signed, the scary, scary people in those YouTube videos. -- nm - David Oct 20, 18:55
  - "if they know who she is in the first place" are you for real? you really think the "Obama crowd" doesnt know Rice? -- nm - Die Incognito Oct 20, 18:48 1
    - I'm a proud member of the Obama crowd. I know who Condi Rice is. -- nm - TWuG Oct 20, 18:51
  - And Powell would have had the option of no comment - as Rice has done. - Reagen Oct 20, 18:39
- Easy. Powell saw the media lining up behind Obama and forcing hundreds of thousands of people to turn out at rallies and he decided - TWuG Oct 20, 18:35 8
  - Couldn't he have, oh, I dunno... said "no comment" and not given an endorsement to either candidate? -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Oct 20, 18:37 7
    - I think that would've caused an uproar. One of my profs was married to a guy working for Powell years ago, and Powell's wife didn't want him running - GJOSHGREEN Oct 20, 18:42 5
      - an uproar from whom? -- nm - Reagen Oct 20, 18:43 4
        
        the African American community and probably the media as well, seeing as how in the tank they are for Obama -- nm - GJOSHGREEN Oct 20, 18:45 3
        
        so the fact that he hadn't said anything until now and no one had criticised him in the slightest doesn't register? - Reagen Oct 20, 18:47
        
        "Powell Endorsement Watch: Day5! Colin Powell still has not endorsed Barack Obama! Why?! What the fuck is wrong with the man!? More after the break" - TWuG Oct 20, 18:47 1
        
        L4! -- nm - Die Incognito Oct 20, 18:54
    - He could have. He chose not to. Is he obligate *not* to endorse? No, so why not endorse the person he sees as the most fit? -- nm - TWuG Oct 20, 18:39
